Joshua 10:15-21

¹⁵Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.

¹⁶These five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.

¹⁷Joshua was told, saying, “The five kings have been found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah.”

¹⁸Joshua said, “Roll large stones to cover the cave’s entrance, and set men by it to guard them;

¹⁹but don’t stay there. Pursue your enemies, and attack them from the rear. Don’t allow them to enter into their cities; for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”

²⁰When Joshua and the children of Israel had finished killing them with a very great slaughter until they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,

²¹all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace. None moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
